In a time when traditionalism and modernity coexisted, Edwin Lutyens' work stands as a remarkable testament to the skill of seamlessly blending these contrasting approaches. As one of the most celebrated architects of the 20th century, Lutyens' legacy continues to be celebrated through the publication of three extensive volumes of his drawings and photographs by Country Life, with the first two volumes already reissued.
Having established himself as a master of domestic architecture, Lutyens was granted the opportunity to expand his expertise to outdoor spaces and public projects. This second volume showcases his extensive contributions to garden design and town planning, as well as the finest examples of his bridges and a selection of monumental civic constructions. These include notable university buildings such as the University of London's Senate House, the Johannesburg Art Gallery, the Washington Embassy, and the Viceroys Palace in New Delhi.
Lutyens' genius is now widely acknowledged, and his work featured in this book showcases not only his professional expertise but also the meticulous attention he paid to even the smallest details. This rare quality makes this book a valuable resource for architects and design enthusiasts alike, as it serves as a comprehensive guide to working drawings.
